In Run for your life, Dr. Mark Cucuzzella explains the simple mechanics of how our bodies have evolved and adapted to run. Despite our natural ability and our human need to run, each year more than half of all runners suffer injuries. Pain and discouragement inevitably follow. Cucuzzella's book outlines the proven, practical techniques to avoid injury and reach the goal of personal fitness and overall health. His book--the first running book to be written by a Professor of Medicine with the credibility of the Air Force behind him--gives us a straightforward, easy-to-follow look at the anatomy, bio-mechanics, nutrition, and/or clinical medicine with clear drawings and black-and-white photographs.

- When the Earth was green : plants, animals, and evolution's greatest romance / by Black, Riley,author.;
- Includes bibliographical references."A gorgeously composed look at the longstanding relationship between prehistoric plants and life on Earth Fossils plants allow us to touch the lost worlds from billions of years of evolutionary backstory. Each petrified leaf and root show us that dinosaurs, saber-toothed cats, and even humans would not exist without the evolutionary efforts of their leafy counterparts. It has been the constant growth of plants that have allowed so many of our favorite, fascinating prehistoric creatures to evolve, oxygenating the atmosphere, coaxing animals onto land, and forming the forests that shaped our ancestors' anatomy. It is impossible to understand our history without them. Or, our future. Using the same scientifically-informed narrative technique that readers loved in the award-winning The Last Days of the Dinosaurs, in When the Earth Was Green, Riley Black brings readers back in time to prehistoric seas, swamps, forests, and savannas where critical moments in plant evolution unfolded. Each chapter stars plants and animals alike, underscoring how the interactions between species have helped shape the world we call home. As the chapters move upwards in time, Black guides readers along the burgeoning trunk of the Tree of Life, stopping to appreciate branches of an evolutionary story that links the world we know with one we can only just perceive now through the silent stone, from ancient roots to the present"--

This versatile, pear-shaped organ is worthy of everyone's attention. In Pear Shaped, a gynecologist and a science communicator join forces to tell the life story of your uterus.

An overview of its many functions. Complications that can impact fertility, childbearing, birth, and menstruation. Tips for advocating for yourself at the doctor's office. Descriptions and images of what the uterus looks like (including the fact that it doesn't always look the same for everyone). Real case studies from the author's gynecological practice. Information about menstruation, contraception, abortion, pregnancy, childbirth, and menopause. As Pear Shaped shows, the uterus is truly fascinating. But it also can be a source of serious concern for many. Pear Shaped also discusses various problems and diseases that arise in the uterus -- including endometriosis, PCOS, fibroids, and unwanted pregnancy -- and how everyday people work with their doctors to find a solution that works for them"--
